It’s Easter Sunday, and so I scrambled to find a story with an Easter egg (ho-ho). Lame joke aside, I present this epic adventure of Oswald the Rabbit, his buddy Toby, and their adventures in a babeland inside the Earth, from Dell’s Four Color #143 (1947).
Sexy little cartoon girls in an all-female society were not what I was expecting in a kiddie comic from the 1940s, but the unexpected is to be expected in any comic book written by John Stanley. Stanley pulls out the stops in this story, extending the idea of a pretty young queen with the addition of an old queen, and even an old old queen. Stanley had one of the most inventive minds of any comics creator.
Art is by Dan Gormley, a prolific comic book artist about whom not much is known. At least we know what he looked like thanks to this photo from Frank Young’s Stanley Stories blog.
